Palm inadvertent touch - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

Hi,
Just got the s7 Edge and am having an issue with using the keyboard with the edge screen. When I'm typing on the phone, my palm regularly and inadvertently touches keys on the left side of the screen, particularly caps lock. As you can imagine, this gets frustrating quickly. Any fix for this?

You'll get used to it. It's the one thing about those curved screens.
The keyboard also.

From what I've read, others who've had the Galaxy 6 edge didn't have this problem. The screen is overly sensitive. It's nearly impossible to type without it caps locking or switching to symbols. This is really poor design. I'm surprised this was such a highly acclaimed phone when it has this big of a flaw. The curved screen shouldn't be a drawback.

You either learn to not do it or with the help of a case it's much less of a problem

There has been an update pushed out by Samsung to fix this. Some people are getting it a bit later and if you have a branded S7e you will have to wait until the carrier releases it.

I called Verizon and they weren't aware of an upcoming patch, and that all patches are released by the manufacturer anyway. So I'm not clear on why Samsung would not have released it yet. Has anyone who's gotten the patch on other networks found that the issue is fixed? I assume this problem exists on every Edge 7.

Another way, which build number are you currently on? At PB4 and PB6 the patch is most likely already included.

I'm on pb1. But I'm wondering if this is just a flaw of a curved glass screen. Does anyone have a s6 edge that had sensitivity issues when the Web of their hand between the thumb and forefinger touched the screen while trying to type? Also, I got a case. It makes zero difference since the issue is the webbing touching the left side of the screen where the number, symbol, caps lock key is on the keyboard. It's nearly impossible to type an email unless I do it by consciously holding the webbing of my hand above the phone. The edge is such a useless design. I'd get the regular s7, but I wanted the bigger battery. I regret moving from the droid turbo. Everyone said this had the most screen on time, but I find it in line with the turbo.

LG G4 Recall

DELETED
Haven't heard anything and like you, a search turned up nothing. Keep us updated if you hear anything else. Seems really strange. What could be so bad that would warrant pulling remaining stock?

I haven't heard anything either. Keep us posted.

Very interested if this would be happening with Verizon too.

Then they haven't been working there long enough to remember the LG Rumor debacle, or the Palm Pre. When I was fixing rumors due to shredding flex cables and faulty charging ports, our manager authorized free replacements with brand new Rumor 2s, which broke... Just as much, really. Seriously, the original Rumor's port would snap off if a baby sneezed in the same zip code. I have nightmares about that phone and the 65 billion screws it had.
The Palm Pre had the Oreo effect, where the two halves would just start twisting freely, like you were taking apart an oreo. And of course, Palm wouldn't let us repair them, so we had to just swap them with refurbs. We had people that were on their 7th, 8th, 9th devices, but didn't want a different model because of Palm loyalty, and the fact that the Pre had a REALLY nice OS, as compared to early Android.

One of the main hardware issues is the screen splitting down the middle and then becoming unresponsive.

The forum does not seem to be exploding with this issue, most we find is this thread on it here and see my post lower down that links to sprint users. All of two pages
Things are quiet because LG is replacing the screens under warranty. In my market they offer a 6 month after purchase screen replacement offer. Samsung does the same as well. This means if this problem does not occur within 6 months then it ain't going to happen.
Knowing that this issue may happen and if it does all it takes is a simple screen replacement that too under warranty means i would be less excited if this occurred. An inconvenience to head off to the service center but at least i know i will get it back very likely on the same day because this thing is easy to repair.
Not knowing this can happen otoh would be frightening.
Will be interesting what Sprint will say when I take mine in tomorrow......I will show them this for sure if I get any hassle......I just want my phone!! Grrrr!!

It's a recall that only effected the Sprint, not necessarily CDMA as Verizon is not impacted, but something Sprint added software wise that created a hardware issue. The major symptom is the screen half snow or static, but other issues such as overheating, freezes, bootloops, stuck on LG logo during boot, touch response issues and network connectivity issues. This effects all models manufactured prior to 10/5/15, in which LG modified the hardware to not have an issue with what ever Sprint does with their software. Knock on wood, the only issue I have had is the network connectivity (average 30% without signal) and constant dropping signal and jumping between 3G and LTE. Kinda a pain in the butt, but I do have to say its improved with ZV6, even though not completely gone. Mine was manufactured May 2015.

Samsung’s software update policy is seriously messed up

2 days ago they did say the update will come out but still nothing what is wrong whit Samsung?
What do you guys think of Samsung's software update policy?
Samsung would like to wait in the Galaxy S7 release...

Nothing for you, no. They have started though. They've released more versions for the Korean variants. So no, not nothing.
They published an article today in and stand him more global updates to let go of that for new flagship will be.

It sucks
They don't care. It's all about the money.
Over the past couple of years their update policy has gotten much worse than it use to be.
Samsung seem to focus more on hardware than software & it's getting that way if you want the latest version of Android you got to buy their latest Smartphones.
Once the S7 is released in just over 3 weeks time, the S6 while still being one of the best smartphones out there even in 2016, will be all but forgotten & put on Samsung's back burner, you get 6.0.1 but don't expect anything else for a very long time after.
Marshmallow 6.1 is due out in the Summer the S7 will see this at some point, the S6 will have to wait until around early 2017.
Android N
The Note 6 will be the first to see this, the S7 will get it in 2017 probably after the S8 is launched, the S6 will probably still be waiting for Android 6.1.
Update suck big time. But i still enjoy holding the premium smartphone, vibrant 2k display, 35ms touch response, good cpu.
I wish to have cm 13 as daily driver, probably not gonna happen.

Exactly. they do not care about their existing customers and only want new customers. They are only interested in converting Apple users to Samsung and neglect us. Then they cry on their phones not selling!

Dont think that's possible on an AMOLED screen. Each LED cant switch off or on independently.

Uh, AMOLED burn-in is a very real, very possible thing. Has been the major issue (along with color oversaturation) since the technology was introduced.

WELCOME TO VERIZON,talk about a double-edged sword:
Great coverage & network (YMMV of course),but,man the rest of their practices,not to mentionusing the bastard CDMA technology,is more than anyone should have to tolerate,especially when no real viable options are available.
Can you not disable VZW's bloatware (VZW apps)?
At minimum,I'd disable DT Ignite,not sure if that will help in the nagging,but,it's one less crapware app needlessly running on your phone..............

I came from a Note 4 and then S7E to the V20. AMOLED has such a tremendous saturation of colors that no LCD will ever be able to compete on that front. But, the brightness level and clarity is about the same. But it has taken me a few days to get back to accepting this as the new norm. Everytime I load CoC I think something is wrong until I remember I'm on a new device.
I took the update. I think it got rid of app pinning in recents.

The IMEI is a unique identifier for your phone,no two phones will have the same IMEI,regardless of carrier &/or model:

If you're asking how to find your IMEI,look in SETTINGS > ABOUT PHONE > STATUS

Would you guys return this Note 4?

I posted this in a verizon note 4 section. Would you guys return this Note 4? I bought it on ebay and it said excellent condition. Cosmetically, it is like a 9/10, but when a white background shows, it shows the screen burn in. Bought it for 180 plus shipping.

If they did not state screen burn in, in the description, return it. There are other Note 4's out there that are in great shape.
First, from the pic you posted, I can't see anything wrong with the screen. Maybe it's just not being picked up by the camera, or maybe I just can't see it (I do have my glasses on though), I don't know.
Second, it's a 3(?) year old phone at this point. If it's cosmetically in great condition, and it's still usable, and the screen issue (which again, I can't really see in the pic) isn't distracting while you're using it, then I say keep it. Especially if(?) you're just using it as a secondary/backup device.

We can't! We would have to see a picture of the screen taken by another device and even then the burn-in would have to be very significant in order for it to show up on a picture.

If you don't believe me try taking a picture of your device's homescreen with another device and see what happens.

Yes really! How a screenshot is supposed to show burn in issue, if there is any? It just snaps the content of the display, whatever is on it, not a hardware issue like screen burn in, cause its happening on the OLED panel!

Guys, even as a back up to my S7 edge, I have my sim in the Note 4 right now. Honestly, besides specs, the S7 edge has the fingerprint going and better camera imo. If the Note 4 had the fingerprint scanner and Better cam, I might've considered my S7 edge as a back up lol. maybe

Try to take it to samsung service center, they can replace it. Mine had terrible burn in, vertical thick yellow lines going up and down. But I was within warranty.
BUT! What you have in the First post picture looks like a replacement screen with poorly cured glue. Had one like that on LG G3 replacement China screen
